We only kill those who play against our team

We’ve played almost every seasonal, and this has never happened

Toxic players from Pharos
A player reported leaving Pharos to start in Elysium because of his own “team.”
He was playing alone on the server and randomly, while hunting, 2-3 players level 200-300 (seasonal chars) appeared just to kill him, even though he was only level 115. They came, killed, and then logged out, without even sending a single message.

Looking for help, he asked support from the “team that doesn’t kill people outside the war” (when there is no real war in Pharos) and was invited to join the guild. After some time, he was told to buy a char that was removed from seasonal. Strangely, after buying that character, the attacks against him stopped. Later, he discovered that the chars killing him were actually owned by the same players who sold him the character meaning they indirectly forced him to buy it.

This shows that the focus of these players is not the game itself, but real money trading.

Top level players only use PvP as a tool of pressure, not for fun or fair competition.

Staff decision of making seasonal full PvP

The main complaint is against the staff, who keeps prioritizing servers with full PvP, even knowing that

there are dead servers completely dominated by top levels who abuse their power

many players don’t like PvP and actually invest to keep the server alive

choosing full PvP only benefits groups that play the game for real life money

The result is obvious: level 1200 players killing level 190s unfairly, kill lists that only show abuse, and a community that loses interest because of the toxic environment.

The staff decision to make the seasonal server 100% PvP doesn’t care, it only protects and favors the ones who already dominate and profit from the game.
